Can I get charged for missing a flight? Most airlines only charge a fee for missing a flight if the passenger seems to have a habit of doing it purposely, commonly known as skiplagging, in which a passenger books a ticket with no intention of taking the secondary legs of a trip in order to secure a cheaper fare.

MORE DETAILS

It makes sense, because the practice saps revenue from them on two fronts: Not only do passengers underpay — potentially by hundreds of dollars per ticket — but the seat on the tossed leg also could have been sold to someone else. Most contracts of carriage from major airlines expressly forbid skiplagging as a result.

Essentially, an empty leg flight occurs when a private jet is chartered to a specific location and doesn't have any passengers for its return flight. If the aircraft lands and doesn't have any passengers booked for the flight back to its home base, it will likely have an empty leg flight.
